Spotlight: Frugalpac
Cheers to Frugalpac… sustainable spirits packaging innovator and the “#SeeingGreen Solutionist of the Day” for November 12.
Frugalpac is a UK-based company that specializes in creating sustainable packaging solutions to help decarbonize the food and drinks industry. Founded in 2016, Frugalpac has gained attention for its innovative designs and commitment to eco-friendly materials, primarily focusing on paper-based products that can replace traditional plastic or glass.
Frugalpac’s flagship product, the Frugal Bottle, exemplifies its drive to create practical, sustainable alternatives to conventional packaging. The world's first commercially available paper bottle for wine, spirits and olive oils, the Frugal Bottle is an eco-conscious wine and spirits bottle made primarily from recycled paperboard, with a minimal plastic liner, resulting in a product that is both lightweight and significantly less carbon-intensive than traditional glass bottles. The Frugal Bottle is made from 94% recycled paperboard and an easily separable food grade metallized PET (MET PET) pouch to hold the liquid, with a total carbon footprint 84% lower than a glass bottle. The company recently announced that the Frugal Bottle soon will move to a mono material pouch, making it more sustainable and recyclable. More than 45 wine, spirits and olive oil producers are using the Frugal Bottle and can be found on shelves around the world including Aldi UK, Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Morrisons, Whole Foods, Carrefour, World Duty Free and more.
